If you notice, most of these images take place in television studios where people are often lit from several different directions to eliminate shadows; and this can result in multiple specular highlights (shiny white spots) being put onto glossy objects (like a person's eyes). Depending on the position of the camera, the lights, and the person being shot it is entirely possible to create specular highlights that would give a person's eyes the appearance of being slit eyes; especially if you were recording a low quality image.
